Kimberley Kitching - The Epicentre Of Hypocrisy

Scientist using the Hubble telescope have discovered the universe's new epicenter of hypocrisy - Australia's relentlessly male right wing political and media sphere suddenly caring about the bullying of women. Just so long as its done by women. Their own systemic epidemic bullying of women? Not so much. Not content with the disgrace of using the tragic death of Kimberley to score political points these same folk out themselves as the rampant life-long misogynists they are by de-legitimizing three of the most experienced and capable women in politics and reducing them to mean teenage girls from a movie. At the heart of this super-massive black hole of hypocrisy is Scott Morrison himself, despite being literally named by Kitching for bullying, never touching misogynists in his own party no matter what they're accused of and being world famous for going awol when the going gets tough, he has the gall to call out Labor leader Anthony Albanese for the same.

Why Was My Video On Jeffrey Epstein Removed From YouTube?

Not an article but a genuine question. A few weeks ago I posted a video on Jeffrey Epstein, about how the real story here was not Ghislaine Maxwell but Epstein's self stated, decades long relationship with the American and Israeli intelligence and weapons communities. It was frankly a dry and analytical piece, made of well established biographical information from Wikipedia, the courts and news reports, nothing was inflammatory or abusive. It was removed by YouTube weeks later and a review of the removal that took less time than to watch the video upheld this decision.

 

My question(s) with particular emphasis on 2.

 

1. How did any part of my video meet the criteria of "we think it violates our harassment, threats and cyberbullying policy" and what part did?

2. How is it possible to "harass, threaten or cyberbully" a dead person? This is literally impossible to do.

3. YouTube doesn't watch hardly any of the millions of uploaded videos, so WHO is out there complaining on behalf of Jeffrey Epstein?!

 

YouTube I would genuinely like to know how I broke this criteria but got no further response, or any if anyone who saw said video could point me in the direction of what happened here. I'm at a total loss.

Ukraine: In Defense Of Russian Oligrachs

Another of my trade mark popular opinions. Yes I - a card carrying lefty socialist - really did say that. The levels of hypocrisy and precedent setting in this conflict is insane.

Ukraine: The Biggest Villain

The biggest villain in this whole unholy mess is not Russia but the military industrial complex, one of the great cancers on our world and who benefit more the worse their behavior gets, to all of our detriment, deliberately stymieing peace and stability for war and chaos as a permanent business model.

 

- As I post this it looks like Ukraine are pledging not to join NATO, so its possible the war is very nearly over. The military industrial complex will be very happy with this outcome, as they now have their global bad guy back in place and will use this conflict to sell tons more weapons to all the ex-Soviet countries that are already in NATO

Ukraine: World War 3

If there is one silver lining to the conflict in Ukraine - it has shown us World War 3 is next to impossible. Our global economies are now so intertwined, the west can't even meaningfully sanction China or Russia without hurting itself, let alone send troops in. Whether this is a good thing for Taiwan is another matter...

Ukraine: Hypocrisy And Racism

I've never seen a conflict portrayed so lock step by the Western media as the war in Ukraine - even the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan drew a wider range of opinions and more critical views. The unbearable hypocrisy of our media in the way it's treating Russia here ignores two massive elephants in the room - recent illegal American invasions and Israel. The latter also pointing to an enormous amount racism involved as we bend over backwards to help oppressed war torn folks, just not brown ones.

Ukraine: Why Did Russia Invade?

Every time there is conflict, the overwhelming push from the media and politicians is that we live inside it and now is not the right time to ask questions on how we got here. Wrong, it is always the right time to question why a war happened, that's if you want to frame it correctly or stop it happening again. A look at how we got here through the lens of journalist Chris Hedges.

An Open Letter To Cookers, Anti-Vaxxers And Truckers

To those who support the recent protests from Canberra to Canada - be wary of who is standing next to you, just because everyone else is giving you stick, it doesn't mean those claiming to be with you are on your side and don't believe everyone who you think is against you isn't on your side either. Protesting the government and mainstream media has always been there, done by many you now call sheep and alternative news media may not be what you think it is.

The Liberal’s Vs China Vs Russia Vs America

With and Australian election looming and with nothing else to campaign on, the incumbent Liberal party have decided to double down on Prime Minister Scott Morrison's disastrous battle with China. No one fights an election on jingoism and patriotism unless they've nothing else left. Now the Liberal's want you to be terrified on of the big bad scary Chinese man at the door, even though they put him there and are trying to paint the Labor party as a Chinese patsy. All of this is wildly hypocritical but also incredibly short sighted and dangerous and it's Australia being made the patsy.

Ghislaine Maxwell, Jeffrey Epstein And The Elephant In The Room

The trial and conviction of Ghislaine Maxwell is a side show, a distraction and slight of hand to avoid scrutiny of a far bigger story. Given Epstein's self professed connection with the US intelligence community and military since the early 80's, his ties with the Israeli intelligence community and military, the mystery of where he obtained his wealth, the fact the DA of South Florida claims he was warned off prosecuting Epstein in 2008 because Epstein belonged to the intelligence community and was above his pay grade and the fact that his close friend and Ghislaine's father, Robert Maxwell (who also died a mysterious death as the net closed in) was regarded as a high ranking Israeli intelligence operative, there's questions to answer. What governments employed or sanctioned Epstein and Maxwell trafficking children to blackmail powerful people, where is that evidence, who were those people and what did they do as a result of this blackmail?
